Watch Serial Number Lookup
Tudor, part of the Rolex Group but run as its own manufacturer, engraves a serial number on every watch. Here's where to find it and how to check it before you buy or sell.
Watch checks & theft reports
A database check is not proof of authenticity or ownership.
On most Tudor models the serial number is engraved between the lugs at the 6 o'clock side, hidden under the bracelet or strap — similar in placement to Rolex. On newer models it may also be etched on the rehaut. It is also printed on the warranty card.
It uniquely identifies your individual watch. Tudor does not publish a public consumer serial-to-date lookup, so serial-number conventions vary by model and production period — verify specifics with an authorized Tudor dealer.
No, not by itself. Because Tudor shares brand recognition with Rolex, it is also a counterfeit target — a plausible serial number does not confirm the physical watch is genuine.
Check the case back, between the lugs, the rehaut, the movement, the warranty card and the original box or papers. Locations vary by brand — see the brand guides below.
Most brands also stamp a separate reference or model number. Together, the two numbers identify the exact watch far better than either alone.
Run the serial number through our stolen-watch database to check whether matching watch information has been reported stolen.
A match or a clean result is one data point, not a verdict — compare the watch's details carefully either way.
For a significant purchase, pair your search with authentication from the manufacturer, an authorized dealer or an independent watch specialist.
Tudor is manufactured by Montres Tudor SA, a sister company to Rolex, and shares some case and bracelet conventions while operating as its own brand with distinct references (such as the Black Bay line). Serial-number conventions vary by model and production period, so confirm specifics through an authorized Tudor dealer rather than an unofficial decoder.
Typically engraved between the lugs at the 6 o'clock side, under the bracelet or strap — similar to Rolex placement — and on newer models also etched on the rehaut. It's printed on the warranty card as well.
No. Tudor is manufactured by Montres Tudor SA, a sister company to Rolex, but it uses its own model references and serial records. Verify a Tudor watch through an authorized Tudor dealer, not a Rolex-specific resource.
No, not by itself. Tudor's association with Rolex makes it a counterfeit target too, so pair a serial check with authentication from an authorized dealer for anything valuable.
Find the serial number between the lugs (or on the rehaut on newer models) and search it through StolenWatchX's stolen-watch database before buying or accepting the watch.
